'Tis Taylor514ce-made, and I look mighty fine with it, if I do say so myself. 'Tis also somewhat pleasing to me that it gives inadvertent access to external subconsciouses, if not my own (or maybe it does....? Hmm? ).

Most my nightmares involve Barbara Streisand and Carrot Top, with "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" by Tears for Fears playing in the background... Sometimes theres a group of highly militant Sugar Gliders with small bottles of Gatorade, and other times it's Red Bull.

Part of me (the downstairs part), is wanting to believe that the above is some haptic, adult toy in 1:1 scale Laurence Fishburne variety, but the intellect upstairs is almost as equally standing to attention at its actual reality. That is, "Yes, please!".

No, the question you have to ask yourself is, do you want one of the many alternatives in the other chambers? Well do ya...punk?

I stopped trying to collect on the Montsnmags debt (otherwise known as the GDP of Rwanda) a long time ago. Now I just put my bar tab on Adrians's credit card and call in nearly even.
